Wilted flowers bloom once again,
Filling this new season with brand new colors.
A bright silhouette beckons me to go
Either into the darkness or the light…

I’m sure my starving heart is lost
In its search for my tears.
How far must I walk down this hill of rose thorns?

I attach this illusionary bond onto my fingers,
What awaits me in the future is the pain I have chosen.
But if such a small piece of despair will continue to shine,
I vow right here and now
That I will always be with you, until the end of this illusion.

♪ ♪ ♪

If such a pure white flower will bloom in the darkness,
Then will it also hide its shivering body?

Counting all the wrongs I did
I walk down the shadows and laugh
So sadness wouldn’t take over my broken heart.

I hope these memories I hold dear won’t be forgotten tomorrow.
But that is just a prayer fading away without reaching anyone.
But if I can continue singing from a slight bit of hope,
I’m sure we’ll meet again.
I’ll stand at the beginning, with you.

♪ ♪ ♪

Flightless birds wished
This sky would just disappear.
You wished to the stars
To have this sky last forever.

That silhouette beckoning me
Won’t give me the answer, will it?
All I have is this
Unreliable heart of mine.

If I’m touched by your hands,
All my love for you will stream out.
So at least let me forget about it for now,
Then one day...

I’ll attach this illusionary bond onto my fingers,
Awaiting me in the future is the pain I have chosen.
This small piece of despair will continue to shine,
So I vow right here and now
That I will always be with you, smiling in this illusion.
